Question

The couple seemed to love one another very much.
a) Every other
b) Each
c) Each other
d) NO IMPROVEMENT

Answer 1

Hint:The word chosen must be suitable to refer to two people who share a friendly relationship or understanding and are not strangers. We use ‘each other’ to refer to people who are close to each other.

Complete answer:
 In the given question, we have been given a sentence with two words from it underlined and we need to choose an option from the given four options that matched the meaning of the underlined words.
The underlined words are ‘one another’ and it is a word used to refer to two people who are engaging closely in some activity together.
Let us take a look at the given options.
Option ‘A’, every other, is a phrase used to refer to a large group of people, with regard to a particular topic.
Option ‘B’, each, is a word that is used to refer to every person who is present in the context.
Option ‘A’ and ‘B’ are incorrect as they are used to refer to a large group of people and they need not be engaged closely.
Option ‘D’, no improvement, is a phrase that is used to refer to someone not being better than how they were before. It is incorrect as it does not have any relation to the given word.
Therefore, the correct answer is option ‘C’, each other. It is a phrase that is used to refer to two people who are engaging closely in some activity.

Note:
Both ‘one another’ and ‘each other’ have more or less the same meaning. But ‘each other’ is more commonly used than ‘one another’.
